Questions about this service
My socket sparks when I plug something in. Is that dangerous?
It usually means a loose or burnt contact, which can heat up. Stop using that socket and book a visit so the electrician can fix it.
Are spare parts included in the price?
No. If a part or material is needed, the electrician quotes it and fits it only after you agree.
What if the problem comes back?
If the work done stops working within 30 days, we come back and fix it at no charge.
How soon can an electrician come?
The earliest slot is 30 minutes from now, and you can book up to 3 days ahead, in working hours. You get the electrician's name before the visit.
